A member asked:
I got cortisone shots in both hips for bursitis this am one side is quite swollen about a 5" area the other is not. should i worry.?

Probably not.: The swelling is probably from the injection, and it will be absorbed in the next few days.. If it doesnot,or your pain increases,see your Dr.
